One of the main concerns of urban social planning is objective assessment of the quality of life of the poor. There are studies, invariably on large and mega-cities, where the problems of the poor are starkly visible. However, the situation in smaller and middle sized cities is no better. The present paper makes an attempt to study the quality of life of the poor in the North-Eastern Indian city of Shillong. - Reproduced
